Gods of Ithia: Hagane no Chi.

Hagane no Chi. Nature Spirit of the River, Iron Sand, Makers of Things, Swords, and Bloodshed. 

Known as Hagane no Chi, The Iron River, The Master of Swords, The Spirit Smith, The Steel Blooded, The Gifter of Steel. 

Hagane’s main body is the large river that deposits iron sand down its bank from the iron-rich mountains in Northern Dodicerous. It is a place of beauty, with trees lining its banks. His spirit form is one of Water, Blood, and Steel, shaped into a humanoid form; one arm is fully steel, the one that shapes swords, and is said to be the one who taught the Vigint how to forge steel and the forging techniques that go into proper Vigint swords. One hears his heartbeat in every swing of a smithing hammer, the swing of a sword knocking aside another blade, the drums that keep the tempo of war.  

Hagane is neither cold nor excessively compassionate. He grants one swift, clean death, a chance to fight against all foes, and encourages those weak of flesh to find strength in steel.  Hagane is the Vigint patron God of Samurai, Swords, Smithing, Steel, and Iron sand.  Hagane is seen as a symbol of divine power bestowed on the Shogunate.
